I'll try the MIPS (aka MIPS32) solution - hey, it
can't kill anything. There are some subtle
differences, but most MIPS64 boards'll run MIPS32 code
(I think in a similar way to the way AMD's 64-bit
chips also run 32-bit code).
However, for anyone planning a "native" MIPS64
solution, I've found a f

The R4K was the first MIPS64 chip. I bought a second-hand manual for
it online for a few bucks. T

That's because there is a difference between mips and mp

recap, I'm compiling on a Broadcom SB1, which is a
MIPS64 board, using a Gnu compiler and tools. The
error message I get is:
configure: error:
The configure is complaining about the missing atomic directives for your
processor. We have the MIPS atomic calls but not the MIPS64. We just have
to add them in the opal/asm/base. I dont have access to a MIPS64 node.
Maybe Brian ?
Thanks,
